Thats all its meant to do, 1 drip every 10 - 15 seconds, remember when your riding that 1 drip will cover a large area of the chain.

Keep it on low number in the summer and higher number in the winter

instructions with mine said 1 drip a minuet. And my chain has plenty of oil.

I think they do a thinner oil for winter, I have a very short pipe so i can get away with the same oil all the time.

Still think its the best add on you can buy for a bike. :lol:

Whack it up high for the first ride, give it a good coating. I'm normally at a good 7-9 over winter.
